These are some of the best strategies to date, on how to get big by working out. They are the most proven and the most effective as well as essential to the process.
Strategy #1 Lift 3 to 4 times a week and Commit to the Process
The goal here is to build muscle, without destroying them. Muscles need the proper amount of rest to rebuild them. Ideally, you should be giving each muscle group at least a 72 hour break before working on them. Let the muscles heal with proper rest and nutrition.
Strategy #2 Eat 5 to 7 Times a Day
Yes, this is not a joke. In order to heal your muscles, you need to eat often. Focus on eating balanced meals consisting of proteins, carbs, and fats. The ideal numbers are 35% proteins, 45% carbs, and 20% fats. The key here is to eat every 3 hours. This will allow your body to build efficiently as well as keep you looking lean and put you into a fat burning state. Make sure that most of your meals are solid foods, and you can have the remainder in the form of meal replacements.
Strategy #3 Supplements with a Twist
Some supplements work, but most of them don't. How do you tell? Focus on supplements with a track record of success. If the supplement has not been around for at least 3 years, then avoid it because it hasn't been proven effective. Focus on the big four, multivitamins, protein powders, creatine, and fish oils. These have all been proven to bring results.
